Fund OverviewThe Fund aims to outperform the return of the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index by 2% per annum after fees on a rolling three-year basis by combining indexed positions in the S&P/ASX 20 stocks with an actively managed exposure in primarily Australian stocks that are outside the S&P/ASX 20.

The Fund is managed as one portfolio but comprises and combines two separately managed exposures:

1. An investment in the top 20 stocks of the markets, which the Fund achieves by taking an indexed position in the S&P/ASX 20 Index; and

2. An investment in the stocks beyond the S&P/ASX 20 Index. This exposure is managed on an active basis using a fundamental core approach.

The Fund may also invest in securities expected to be listed on the ASX, securities listed or expected to be listed on other exchanges where such securities relate to ASX-listed securities.Derivative instruments may be used to replicate underlying positions and hedge market and company specific risks. The companies within the portfolio are primarily selected from, but not limited to, the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index.

The Fund typically holds between 40-55 stocks and thus is considered to be highly concentrated. This means that investors should expect to see high short-term volatility. The Fund seeks to achieve growth over the long-term, therefore the minimum suggested investment timeframe is 5 years.
Manager CommentsBennelong Twenty20 Australian Equities Fund returned -0.74% to take the latest 6-months return to 13.42%.

The Fund outperformed the market's return of -1.55%, due to the ex-20 exposure within the Fund. Some of the largest positions held in the ex-20 fund were Domino's Pizza Enterprises, Ramsay Health Care, Star Entertainment Group, and Treasury Wine Estate. All these companies reported strong results and their shares responded accordingly. The August reporting season highlighted that the market continues to offer quite attractive opportunities. However, the reporting season also highlighted the need to be specific in one's investment in the market.
